OSLO (WNS) - The Norwegian Supreme Court has ordered new hearings for one of the Israelis ap¬ prehended in the Oslo apartment of Israeli security attache Yigal Eyal shortly after the slaying .of/the Moroccan citizen, Ahmed Bouschiki.

LONDON (WNS) - Moscow Radio has defended aliya from the Soviet Union in two separate broad¬ casts. In its general Arabic service Moscow radio denounced a Lebanese newspaper report accusing the USSR of helping the enemies of the Arabs. "It is the - Zionists and imperialists who always tell the Arabs that the Soviet Union has deserted them,'' the radio said. In its broadcastserviceto Algeria; Moscow"Radio denied that because Jews are allowed to go to Israel this justifies equating the USSR with the US in regards to the Arabs.

ICAO Condemns Israel For Airliner Interception Claim Airlines Pay Blackmail To Terrorists

JERUSALEM, (JTA) — Official sources condemned as unbalanced and one-sided the resolution adopted on Aug. 30 in Rome by the In¬ ternational Civil Aviation Organization (ICAO) con? demning Israel for;; in¬ terception of a Lebanese airliner Aug. 10 and forcing it to land at an Israeli air- base. The 128-member ICAO general assembly adopted the resolution by a vote of 87- 1 with four: abstentions. Israel cast the lone negative vote and Ireland, Thailand, j Singapore and Bolivia, ab¬ stained 'on the resolution which also warned that if Israel repeats the action the
ICAO will take measures against her. The con¬ demnation followed similar actions in the United Nations Security Council and the ICAO council in Montreal. In condemning the ICAO's resolution, official sources stressed that the convention did not take into account the background of the in¬ terception, nor did the delegates pay attention to tiie protection given by Arab states to the terrorists who endanger the security of civil aviation. Several Arab countries voilated the in¬ ternational law concerning civil aviation many times, the sources pointed out, but
no action has ever been taken against them. However, the general belief in Jerusalem was that the Arab delegations in Rome failed in their efforts to impose sanctions on Israel. Many Western countries, headed by the United States, convinced the Arabs to
Waldheim Pessimistic About Quick Mideast Breakthrough
-GENEVA, <JTA).~United- Nations Secretary General Kurt Waldheim flew to Damascus last week on the first leg of a five-nation Middle East tour he has undertaken at the initiative of Egypt and for which he held out little prospects for any immediate breakthrough to resolve the Arab-Israeli dispute.
Dr. Waldheim reviewed the Middle East situation with his special Mideast envoy, Ambassador Gunnar V. Jarring shortly after he arrived here yesterday and met with Dr. Jarring again
this morning before..taking, off for Syria. He told newsmen here that "I do not expect to return with a solution to this very com¬ plex, difficult and tragic problem, nor is it my in¬ tention to present specific proposals." Waldheim added that his Mideast visit "does hot replace the mission of Ambassador Jarring."
His less than optimistic assessment of the situation was contained in the in¬ troduction to his annual report to the UN General
